said: "We write to tell you that, with great regret, we have had to walk away from Norn. This was a terribly difficult and heart-breaking decision to make after all the work we put into creating what we achieved – which we are incredibly proud of.
However, we’re hugely fortunate and excited to announce that we are developing an amazing new restaurant on Broughton Street, of which we will have full control of.
The new restaurant will be named ‘Fhior’ (meaning true/honest) and will have great sourcing of produce at the heart of everything it does and a very excited hybrid of uses for the concept."
Scott grew up with a passion for food and like most chefs started his career working as a pot wash for a local restaurant. It wasn’t long before he nabbed his first commis job at a small Sicilian restaurant working his way up to become sous chef. He later moved to the one Michelin-starred, The Peat Inn working under Geoffrey Smeddle before opening a new restaurant with award winning chef, Steve Collinson and then managing seven restaurants and bars working as a Food Development Manager. It was after leaving his development job that Scott opened Norn.
